This recipe came about from my love for all the ingredients and my hope that they would taste great together. Thankfully they do!

Tastes great with or without the shrimp. Mushroom or cheese tortellini can be used instead of chicken.

  1. 1

    Blend the stick of butter and the heavy whipping cream in a medium sauce pan. Once the butter has mostly melted, add cheese, salt, pepper, and stir until smooth and creamy. The sauce will thicken once you take it off heat.

  3. 3

    Peel both avocados, place in a small mixing bowl and cut into small pea-size chunks with a sharp knife. Mix into the sauce.

  4. 4

    Sauté shrimp in olive or coconut oil until fully cooked. Might want to do this step first.

  5. 5

    Blend shrimp into sauce, stir, and pour sauce mixture into the pasta. Mix thoroughly and serve. Should make 8-10 servings.
